Understanding the Refiner’S Fire of God
Author: Reverend Ronald Davis
Publisher: WestBow Press
ISBN: 1490875689
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 87
Book Description
I wrote this book to inform Gods people of His ways of processing and changing us. He does it through the inner working of the Holy Spirit and through His fire. Gods people dont understand His internal workings. He said in Mal. 3:24 he would send His messenger and refine us as silver and gold, talking about His people. The messenger was Jesus. Jesus said He would baptize us with the Holy Ghost and fire. He was talking about purging our sins and purifying us of them. The fire of God, through the inner working of the Holy Spirit, burns the sin up and delivers us, if we repent and confess them and cooperate with His internal workings. Too many times, Gods people dont understand this process of change. I go into detail in the book to explain. Gods not trying to hurt us, just change us, and too many times we dont understand it. I pray you get a better understanding after you have read this book.

The Worship Pastor
Author: Zac M. Hicks
Publisher: Zondervan
ISBN: 0310525241
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 221
Book Description
Modern worship leaders are restless. They have inherited a model of leadership that equates leading worship with being a rock star. But leading worship is more than a performance, it's about shaping souls and making disciples. Every worship leader is really a pastor. The Worship Pastor is a practical and biblical introduction to this essential pastoral role. Filled with engaging, illustrative stories it is organized to address questions of theory and practice, striving to balance conversational accessibility with informed instruction. Part One presents a series of evocative "vignettes"--intriguing and descriptive titles and metaphors of who a Worship Pastor is and what he or she does. It shows the Worship Pastor as Church-Lover, Disciple Maker, Corporate Mystic, and Doxological Philosopher. Part Two covers specific roles related to ministry within the worship service itself--the Worship Pastor as Theological Dietician, Caregiver, Mortician, Emotional Shepherd, War General, Prophetic Guardian, Missional Historian, and Liturgical Architect. Part Three looks at ministry beyond the worship service--the Worship Pastor as Visionary Teacher, Evangelist, Artist Chaplain, and Team Leader. While some worship leaders are eager to embrace their pastoral role, many are lost and confused or lack the resources of time or money to figure out what this role looks like. Pastor Zac Hicks gives us a clear guide to leading worship, one that takes the pastoral call seriously.
